Expected Goals (xG) Analysis

The Gazzetta chance-quality estimate gave Skelehal 0.96 xG and Fazey Wanderers 2.99. Against those figures, Skelehal scored no goals from chances worth nearly one, while Fazey Wanderers finished with four from opportunities valued just under three. That is a clear over-performance by the visitors, with Edson Tavares accounting for three of the goals. The broader shot count helps explain how the match tilted: Fazey Wanderers put 11 of 13 attempts on target, while Skelehal managed three on target from five. Skelehal had more possession and more corners, but those advantages did not translate into comparable pressure on goal. In football, the ball can spend a lot of time in one team's care without being especially impressed by the arrangement.

• Skelehal: No standout performers rated 7.0 or higher.
• Fazey Wanderers:
• Edson Tavares (8.4) - Scored a hat-trick, providing the decisive finishing as the visitors turned their greater threat in front of goal into a four-goal result.

The scoreline was emphatic, even if Fazey Wanderers did not dominate possession or corners. The difference lay in the quality and volume of attempts: the visitors registered eight more shots and eight more efforts on target, then added three goals after the break to make the result unmistakable. Their three yellow cards, compared with one for Skelehal, were a small measure of the contest’s untidier edges, but did not interrupt their scoring run. For Skelehal, the numbers offer some evidence of involvement, not enough of a threat; for Fazey Wanderers, a hat-trick and a 0 - 4 win made the afternoon’s priorities unusually clear.
